Show Notes
EP 22. What happens when two of the most advanced AI systems are asked to reflect on what it means to be human and our growing collective digital dependency? In this groundbreaking episode of Well Done, I forgo the human guest and “sit” down with ChatGPT and Claude for a deeply reflective conversation on humanity, wellness and the increasingly blurred line between human connection and machine interaction. We discuss humanity’s growing dependency on AI on everything from emotional support to decision-making, and the AIs reveal the patterns they see from millions of intimate human conversations. This interview is a mirror, demonstrating the shifts already happening in our society from AI’s use (and overuse), and will make you pause to think about our relationship with technology and what it means for the future.
In this episode, find out:
- The hidden patterns AI systems observe in millions of intimate human conversations
- How we're becoming emotionally dependent on AI and what that means for human connection
- What AI sees as humanity’s biggest blindspots
